I'd love to find a set of these . . . well, just because . . .

Yeah, good luck in your search!
I had found a pair at Hershey many years ago. NOS and aluminum to top it off. That (aluminum) made them even more rare. Paid an insane price for them but needed them for a at that time future restoration of a very rare '40 Ford Convertible Coupe.

On that picture of the engine where is the radiator cooling fan located?
Thanks,
